About THE
NATIONAL THOROUGHBRED LEAGUE

Mission

The Mission of the National Thoroughbred League is to deliver the greatest sports and entertainment experience in the world. We bring joy, energy and excitement through our league of NTL teams. Safety of horses, jockeys and all participants is our priority. And innovation, inclusivity and sustainability are the core drivers of our future growth and value in the horse racing industry.

VALUES

 

  • Passion: At National Thoroughbred League, your passion for horse racing is met with unforgettable experiences. Our commitment to excellence means you’ll enjoy top-tier events, and our focus on safety ensures peace of mind for all involved.
  • Excellence: The league is dedicated to achieving excellence in all aspects of its operations, from event management to marketing to innovation.
  • Teamwork, Respect, and Safety: NTL fosters a culture of teamwork and respect among its employees, participants, and partners. The league prioritizes the safety and well-being of horses, jockeys, and all individuals involved in its events.
  • Fun and Community: NTL strives to create welcoming and fun events for all fans, participants, and stakeholders. The league actively engages with local communities and supports initiatives that promote the growth and sustainability of the horse racing industry.

STRUCTURE & competition Format

The NTL Competition: The NTL experience is unlike anything in horse racing history. Each of our Cups in a five-race competition – all 10 teams enter one athlete from their roster in each race – with teams accruing points throughout. Like an NFL or NBA game, the entire competition takes less than 3 hours, and we throw in lots of surprises between the races. Races will be run at standard lengths, ranging from three-quarters of a mile (6 furlongs) up to a mile, on both dirt and turf, encompassing horses of both genders.

The Points System: Teams compete for 3000 points at each of our Cups. For the first four races, the breakdown is as follows: First place gets 150 points, second place 90 points, with each finish below that descending 10 points (thus, 10th place only gets 10 points). For the final race, it’s very simple: 300 points for first, 200 points for second, 100 points for third, with no other horse scoring. The team with the most points on the day wins that Cup. The team with the most points for the year wins the NTL Championship.
